The Tiger roars once again!

An Post celebrated the Chinese New Year of the Tiger by issuing a new 82c stamp which covers letter postage to any part of the world . The stamp shows an image of a tiger from an 18th century Tibetan-Buddhist painting currently on display at the National Museum of Ireland.

Those born in a Year of the Tiger are said to be born leaders, courageous, confident, noble and fearless. The Tiger also has an alluring personality and is a social and friendly creature but can be self-centred and short tempered.
